New York, N.Y. – More than 250 senior corporate treasury and finance professionals from some of the nation's
largest companies converged on New York City on Oct. 28-29, 2009, to participate in Treasury & Risk magazine's
14th Annual Alexander Hamilton Awards and Best Practices Summit.
The event honors exceptional treasury and finance departments for their excellence in solving finance and treasury
management challenges, this year made all the more urgent by the financial crisis. Cardinal Health
CFO Jeff Henderson delivered the opening keynote session to a jam-packed audience and took on the
next big difficult and controversial issue, health care reform, and its potential impact on businesses.
Having survived and thrived during the economic turmoil of the last year, Toyota Financial Services won
the Alexander Hamilton Overall Excellence award. TFS kept the carmaker's dealerships operating, stayed
in the leading business and managed to increase market share, thanks to a strong and integrated
treasury and finance department and innovative leadership.
